Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of any plane passing through \((1,2,1)\) is \( \begin{gathered} A(x-1)+B(y-2)+C(z-1)=0 \\ \Rightarrow A x+B y+C z=A+2 B+C \\ \Rightarrow\left(\frac{A}{A+2 B+C}\right) x+\left(\frac{B}{A+2 B+C}\right) y \\ +\left(\frac{C}{A+2 B+C}\right) z=1 \end{gathered} \) According…
